Time is running out


Time is running out. I have until Friday at midnight to have all my exams and homework done! So far I have gotten all my homework done {yay} and two exams {yay yay}, now all I have left is two midterms {eeeek}. I am a little nervous about these two midterms considering the first tests in both classes were wicked hard. The same professor teaches these two classes, I guess you could say I am just lucky to have him twice...hmmm

Anyhoo I really shouldn't be on here, or dancing around to music, I should be studying! I was just desperate for a break and I am glad I took one. I'm working again tomorrow at the grade school then the middle school on Friday. Then it's spring break! Although I'm not going anywhere warm I plan on relaxing and perhaps even taking a few days off of work. ALSO one of my favorite holidays is over break! St. Patrick's Day! So good to be Irish ;)

Mee ohhh myyy


Last night I went to bed knowing this week was going to be a hectic one. I was scheduled to work all five days, Luce today, Kennedy tomorrow, Galvin Wednesday, Hanson Thursday and Galvin again on Friday. If I were subbing at the high school on friday, instead of the middles school, I would have covered all 5 of the public schools here in town. HECTIC. I like it better when I'm at the same school for a few days. I don't like having different start and end times each day. But there really isnt anything I can do about it.

SO this morning rolls around, my alarm went off at 6:30am to give myself two hours before work. Anyways I decide to close my eyes just for a few extra minutes of sleep, next time I open them its 8am, I now have a half hour to get to work. HECTIC.

I was placed in a kindergarten classroom {for the first time}. The kids were cute as a button, BUT after a full day of basically babysitting 24 kids at the same time as bathroom breaks, math lessons, story time, gym glass, indoor recess, lunch, and circle time; I think I can safely say it was a great experience but I don't see myself doing that everyday. Thank youuu

Did I mention I am working five days, and I have midterms this week?? I have to take the midterms by midnight on friday because technically saturday starts spring break and they must be done by then. I should be reading and studying right now, but instead I just got back from the gym and I felt the need to share my hectic week.

Enough of all the complaining, next week is spring break and St Patricks day, and then the week after that is lady gaga and then the week after that is Senate. SO march will be a fantastic month, I just need to get through this week...OH and it needs to stop snowing, this is getting a little ridiculous.

I'm itching for an adventure



Spring break is right around the corner {all I need to do is survive three midterms next week...eek}. I am hoping to make it down to Florida, the change in weather would be fantastic! But we will seee. If not I will probably continue to work with the kiddies and read tons of books. {such a nerd} Maybe I will splurge on a tanning package {I know, soo bad, especially with the Irish skin} but I neeed sun, winter is killing me.

Anyhoo I came across this picture on ffffound {click on it, I dare you, you might find pictures you love} and now it is currently the background of my computer. I am itching for an adventure small or big, near or far. I just want to get into my car and drive, perhaps get lost. But really getting lost is all part of the adventure, see new places, meet new faces, and eventually get to where you were going. This summer I am really hoping to take a cross country trip {before camp starts of course}, my friend and I are talking about taking the trip after she graduates! How exciting is that?? It would be such a blast! I have even started saving for the adventure/trip {on top of my shiiit lately}.

But as for now perhaps I will take a trip up north to visit mle... or out west to the westies. What I really want to do it backpack through Europe AND someday I will. Just like my mom did when she graduated college...bamf

For after I graduate, I have even been looking into World Teach, an organization that stations people in other countries to teach children. That would be an amazing adventure AND I would be teaching kiddies all at the same time {of course its also a resume builder like mother says, because I should be looking towards the future... blah blah blah... I say ADVENTURE!}
